Art
- Start by making a new slide (Ctrl+M) and give it a title.
- Give it a title dealing with art in your country or state.
- Use enchanted learning to find country and state art, or try a search using net Trekker or Yahoo! Kids. These are both safe sites for children and teachers to search with.
- Use sarch terms such as "art + (state or country name)" or "music + (state or country name)."
- Decide if you will focus on an artist or a specific piece of art.
- If you are focusing on a particular artist, copy and paste some of his or her pieces of art and put them on your slide.
- Type important information that pertains to your research. For example, the style of the artist's work is probably more important than the artist's birthday.
- If you are focusing on a piece of art like architecture, copy and paste one image of the work and put it on your slide.
- The resr of the slide should explain its importance, style, and its creators.
